Cacluate Yield Strength#
The yield strength of a metal is calculated from a stress strain curve by drawing a line parallel to the elastic modulus that goes through the point strain=0.002. Where that line crosses the stress strain curve, that amount of stress is the yield strength
Point-Slope Formula for a line:
\[ y - y_1 = m(x-x_1) \]
Where \(m=\) slope in the linear elastic region (elastic modulus, E), \(x_1=0.002\), and \(y_1 = 0\)
Rewrite the equation, where \(y=stress_{offset}\) and the elastic modulus and value of \(x_1\) and \(y_1\) are included.
\[ stress_{offset} = E(strain-0.002) \]
# calculate the yield strength of Al6061
stress_offset_al = E_al*(strain_al-0.002)
